Keyboard Backlight Stopped working Dell Inspiron 7000 13

Hey all!

 

My keyboard backlight was working fine but then one day it just stopped.

I've pushed f10 and fn + f10 doesn't give any feedback

 

I've gone to the Windows mobility center and made sure things are fine there but still no feedback.

But the CAPS LOCK Light and back light works 

 

Apart from that nothing else

 

Tried restarting also no feedback

 

Please Help

could it be software related? did you install the win10 anniversary update?

go to dell's site and see if they have drivers for the input devices and just reinstall them?

if its hardware issue then you may have to replace the keyboard assemble.
still under warranty or no?

I don't think it has been updated with the win10 anniversary update

There aren't any keyboard drivers or input drivers.

 

Thing is when I push f10 Win Mobility Center recognises it but the lights don't show

 

When I push CAPS the caps light along with the CAPS LOCK key back light turns on

Is that the only thing that can be done?

What about updates would uninstalling a particular recent update help?
